i was at camp this summer and there was a telemarker there with line twin tips.
He spent most of the time trying to master a 15 foot mailbox rail, and he was pretty much killing him self, his skis got tangled up and he only made it across once or twice without getting tangled up in his skis.

I dont understand why those guys dont just get a heel- peice and huck there meat because there isnt really a point in tele-jibbing


so i said to her 'look baby,i'm not saying your not beutifal, i'm just not sure my man in there wants to pay for it'

Tele-Jibbing is the shit. Their tricks are so sweet, and they can really tweak the airs. I wish I could tele!

I give those guys lots of respect... They still do the sport they love but integrate jibbing! Maybe the guy on the rail was just learning.... Most people in parks can't even do 15 foot mailbox... *Sigh*

remember ross richards? he is a really cool guy.. a stoner and a friend of mine... but i will still go out and say that overall tele jibbing is the most pointless thing ever. what the fuck? why in the hell would you want to do it? you will never be able to progress as far as you can on a regular alpine setup

Tele-jibbers need to be given a lot of respect, becuase it is a harder sport, and if they can do the shit that most people can on fixed heel binders, then that takes a lot of skill.

The point of tele-jibbing, is that some people don't want to sacrifice the free helled skiing they love. They think it has a lot more flow to it, and its most definitely more technical. As for jibbing, its obviously not as easy, and there are a few tricks that you can pull on teles that you can't really do on fixed heel like a true rocket air. And a rocket on teles looks tight as hell.

I'm a pretty damn good tele-jibber, but next season i am swith to fixed heel. I am still going to tele jib but i am just going to do the tricks first on fixed heel shit, cause sometimes shit gets extra sketchy. I teach all of the older tele jibbers in jackson trick, cause i only 15 and way better than them. I just want to progress more and try something new by going to fixed heel.

Telemarking is way harder than skiing or snowboarding. What's the point of tele-jibbing you ask? If you tele, then why would you switch to alpine to jib when you could just learn how to jib on the shit you already ride.
Stupid.
All you free-heelers; keep on killin it.

i wonder if these 'tele-jibbers' do the telemark trails on fixed heels.. i mean since they're into challenging themselves and stuff.

I may sound like a noob but I don't know much about tele'ing. Do they ever go switch onto a rail? Or can they not pop because heel is free?

Why do people keep bumping old Durschi threads? I've seen 3 different ones recently, he's getting up there with Andy Parry at being the most bumped person.
